Mt Cain Closed for the Season 

That's right. We are now closed. The t-bars are put away. The cable is all lubricated for storage. (Over 50 litres of lubrication!). The beer supply ...empty. 

Thank you all for a spectacular season.See you either at our AGM the Friday Sept. 20th, 7 pm, our work parties. or next season (Roughly Dec. 7th, 2013).

Suggestions for coping with lowland life on the North Island: 

• Golf. Why not try 7-Hills  near Port McNeill/Port Hardy?  Or the Rainbow's End course in Sayward? Get in practice for next year's trip to the clubs...
• Rumblefest.... the Port Alice mountain bike race that defies convention. Saturday, June 1st, 2013 - Sunday, June 2nd, 2013 www.rumblefest.com
• Ski-touring (It's actually possible to ski 12 months of the year on the North Island...with some creativity). It's all corn baby...
• Go tree-planting (...or as the rest of us call it..."go to work" you ski bum).
• Visit your in-laws. Or out-laws as the case may be for some of us. 
• Garden... it's pretty much time to get those Dahlia bulbs in anyway. What fun will come of those buds. 
• Fishing.
• Beaching/Tsunami garbage collection. 
• Talk to your non-winter friends/spouse again...the one(s) you haven't seen in 4 months. 
• Make Borecky a back deck. 

From the Mount Cain team, see you all sooner than later I hope. Thanks to the volunteers and all of our staff who make this amazing little hill happen. 

Happy Trails, 

Neil Borecky, 

Director of Fun
